Andrey, Here are some more programming languages you may wish to discredit for their goto support. This made me smile :)
Fortran, this : http://cvs.php.net/co.php/pecl/stats/dcdflib.c?r=1.1nice code has been written firstly in Fortran and then converted to C. When I want to train my braincells I try to understand the code flow :)
C#, Cobol, Ada I was trying to remember whether Ada has goto. I think Pascal also has. No idea whythe military guys needed goto in Ada :) Ilia, my idea is that goto brings problems in most cases and I kind of saving my donkey (and maybe the donkeys of other people) of some royal pain when we are pushed to support badly written _legacy_ code. cheers, andrey
